Will's journey to becoming a fully realized wizard nears its end, his immense power challenging the established order. Now, those in power seek to control or eliminate him.

After victory, King Darrow plots against Will, forcing him into dangerous alliances with powerful and treacherous figures: an ancient, vengeful lich, a manipulative fae queen, a fearful lord of Hell, and a terrifying primal beast.

To survive, Will must navigate these treacherous alliances and confront the king's deadly secret. As ancient enemies return, the final battle for the world begins. The fate of the realm rests on the clash between king and wizard, where only one can claim the Wizard's Crown.
